#kungfupanda #jackblack #reaction
I absolutely love this trilogy. not only is it very funny with cool fight scenes and beautiful artwork and well written stories, it also holds some VERY beautiful/emotional scenes and some amazing life lessons. I still hold the 2nd movie as one of thé best animated movies of all time, keeping the comedic sides of the first movie but taking a far more serious, deep and sad story. so I really hope you will react to that one too, because your reactions are an absolute joy to watch.
but there is SO much attention to detail and symbolism in these movies.
Like the scene where Shifu gives Po the dragon scroll; by blowing the petals up, he gets the dragon scroll to fall down and catches it with Oogway's cane, which just barely touches the water. or described in other words: with some effort, the tiniest change can tip the balance in your favour and cause a ripple effect as a result. the effort: in scene it is Shifu blowing the petals, but in the story it is Shifu and Po training. the tiniest change: in scene, it is the petal, but in the story it is Shifu starting to finally believe in Po and accepting that he can't always have controll. the ripple effect: in scene, the water, but in the story it is Po unlocking his true potential which in turn result in Po believing in himself and accepting himself, which results in him beating Tai Lung, which results in Shifu finally being at peace.
Another great one is the one saying Oogway said in the beginning: "one often meets his destiny on the way he takes to avoid it." Trying to avoid Tai Lung's escape, caused his escape. Shifu trying to get rid of Po only strengthened his will to stay. Tai Lung wanting the scroll in the past resulted in Oogway denying it to him. Then later, Tai Lung finally getting the dragon scroll resulted in him being defeated. and there's a lot more in this film and the later ones.
Or Po understanding the scroll. The answer has been hinted since the beginning. First the dad talked about the secret ingredient at the beginning, then during the peach tree scene between Oogway and Shifu, Oogway said "you have to believe". and then when Po gets the scroll, he says "it's blank", yet when Tai Lung gets it, he says "it's empty", symbolizing how Po saw a blank slate in himself, while Tai Lung only was emptiness once he got what he desired (he was so consumed by the scroll that getting the scroll was his entire identity. so once he got the scroll, he also lost his identity). and then at the end when Po's dad says "to make something special, you just have to believe it's special", making everything come full circle.
okay sorry, I've been rambling on again. I am just VERY passionate about the Kung Fu Panda trilogy. I honestly could make an hour long analysis on just the first movie alone and still have a lot left to say. so before this gets to long, I will just cut myself off here and just say: love you, love your authenticity and love your reactions.
Very good comment thanks
Thanks for reacting to this, honestly one of the best animated comedies ever made.
Could we get a Rush Hour reaction?
It's been on Patreon list but never picked other movies get chosen.
@@AwesomeUSMovies ah I see ok
Hell yeah rush hour would be awesome
If you’d like to see more of Dreamworks animations, I highly suggest the How to Train Your Dragon trilogy and The Prince of Egypt.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
@@AwesomeUSMovies As a Christian, I personally really, really love The Prince of Egypt. It’s a story about Moses and the exodus of Hebrew people from Egypt.
How to Train Your Dragon movies are awesome, too. I dare say they are even better than Kung Fu Panda trilogy.
@@evelynrosewindsor My favorite trilogy) I 100% agree with you
@@evelynrosewindsor same, as a Muslim, we love that movie as well
I saw this film in theaters and I was completely hooked. I empathized with Po, and I loved his dad. The morals and the story are so good. As a teacher, I especially resonated with the idea that not everyone learns the same way. It is a motto that I have always kept with me. It greatly informs my educational philosophy and I truly believe that everyone can become a master of something as long as they are willing to learn and apply themselves.
This was an unexpected surprise for me. By this point I didn't give animated movies like this much thought. But I saw it years after it came out and I really liked it.
LOVED your reaction!! This entire trilogy is so good (especially the second one, its even better than the first) so I can't wait to see your reactions to the rest of it. I also loved that you used the movie screen as your background, rather than just editing yourself in as do all the reactors I've seen before and to me it actually looks cleaner that way. Can't wait to see the rest of your reactions, you've earned a sub from me :)
Thank you so much. I hope you get a chance to check out some of my other content. Welcome to the channel.
@@AwesomeUSMovies will definitely check them out, and thank you!
Great reaction, one of my favorite trilogies from when I was a kid. The sequel to this one is by far my favorite, hope to see you react to it too!
Looking forward to it
I love the fact that all Po's dad had to do to get inside the temple was open the door..
yup
School of Rock with Jack Black would be an awesome reaction! love the reactions man!
Added
Along with saying 'you're awesome ' now you could add, 'remember there's no secret ingredient, it's you'.
It is you
Gotta check out "Orange County" with Jack Black and Colin Hanks(Tom Hanks' son). "School of Rock", "Saving Silverman" and "Shallow Hal" too! All are light hearted comedies and a lot of fun.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny
Sometimes animated movies are more fun than you'd expect. If you haven't seen "Up" yet you should check that one out.
Yep seen it
Kung Fu Hustle . I would love to see your reaction to that movie.
I'll check it out
@@AwesomeUSMovies SUBTITLED VERSION ! !
@@AwesomeUSMovies definitely do !!
Jackie Chan is a legend! You definitely will enjoy movies from his career. Old stuff from his days in Hong Kong, such as "Police Story" or "Dragons Forever" are great for the classic karate movie genre, while his American made movies like "Rush Hour" and "Rumble in the Bronx" have a more modern appeal.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
@@AwesomeUSMovies He left out Drunken Master. It's a comedy about a kung fu artist who's only good because of the style and alcohol. He becomes sober but still use the style.
jacky chan gives his voice to the monkey
@@subitman12 Shanghai noon would be perfect for this channel imo
beautiful intro. thanks for letting everyone know your background to help us better understand you. I havent watched your video yet, but you seem like a very wholesome person.
Thanks and welcome
Speaking of Jack Black. Have you seen School of Rock? Not very popular, but one of my favs!
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
one often meats is destiny on the road he takes to avoid it -------- my favorite line in all of move histoy --- and you just completly mist / ignored it
There was lots of great lives
Loved this reaction! I had doubts about the movie when it came out, but I’m so glad I gave it a chance, it was better than I thought it would be. 😄 Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub
One of the best and funniest animated Martial Arts Action Comedy Movies I've seen!
It was great
My dad was an artist and I studied computer graphics & animation, and in my book, you can call it a cartoon if you want. 😉
I thought so but my boys says I'd get destroyed in the comments
one of my friends is obsessed with this movie franchise
Loved this movie as a kid, just a great storyline
I still never saw the "Kung Fu Panda" movies, they're on my list now! 🐼
Hi there! I am writing from Argentina, I apologise for my English.I have started following you because I love your reactions and I enjoy them very much. You seem to be very true. Thank you and keep going!
Thank you so much for watching
I live near San Francisco. One of our monuments is Coit Tower (which is dedicated to firefighters). It sits atop Telegraph Hill. The easy way to the site is by bus. Directly opposite to the bus stop is the Hard Way. Well, that's what I call them. The Filbert Steps is the official name and I think they're intimidating. Everyone who goes up those stairs are as stunned as Po was looking up those stairs.
There is a CZcams channel called Ipanda. It's the ChengDu panda center in China. One can see lots of baby pandas.
Fun
Love this reaction! This is such a good movie!
Thanks glad you enjoyed it
If you want a great live action kung fu movie then i recommend both “legend of the drunken master” with jackie chan and “kung fu hustle” with stephan chow
One of my favorite trilogies
Your personality and background are perfect for this. Your kids were right to nudge you to do this.
Agreed
You should watch John Wick 2 + 3. Nobody (2021) is a good movie too. The Equalizer 1 + 2 is also very good. Have fun watching.
Thanks, I've added all these to my list. It's appreciated
Notice how Viper was never mean to Po or even unpleasant. She even intimidated mantis when Po was bouncing down the stairs.
Yes
I'm actually impressed you managed to not know the A-list celebrity cast in this.
Check out more of my reaction vidoes. I've actually come a long ways from when I started 2 years ago.
Such a great family movie. Funny, beautiful and a great story.
Honestly didn't think much of this movie at first. Then I impulse-purchased it at Walmart after it came out on DVD, and it basically restored my faith in Dreamworks, along with How to Train Your Dragon. (Which you should definitely watch if you haven't already.)
Added to list
You’ve gotta watch the second movie as soon as possible that’s all I’ve gotta say
Cool thanks
Awesome 👍🏻...really....loved your reaction.. subscribed!
Thank you so much
I'm sure You're gonna enjoy the other 2 sequels too .
oh, there are 3 of them... cool
@@AwesomeUSMovies Each one is better the last the 2nd one is a tearjerker it’ll get you in the feels
I was laughing so hard when you said “the fast 5”
I couldn't remember what they were called
@@AwesomeUSMovies it’s confusing because of the fast and furious movies especially the fact that the 5th one is called fast five lol
This was a lot of fun!
Hope to see more animated features from you in the future. There’s some gems out there beyond Disney and Pixar.
Going to recommend one in particular.
“Coraline” (2009)
This film is actually stop-animation. Meaning puppets that are moved bit by bit, frame by frame.
Referred to as claymation in the olden days. But the artistry has come a long way since those old times.
And If you’re a fan of Jack Black,
going to highly recommend Jack Black’s
“School of Rock” (2003)
Sure you’ll enjoy this one.
Cheers
Thanks, I've added all these to my list. It's appreciated
This was a good movie, I saw in theater. I hope you react to more animation movies.
Great video as alwayss!!
Want to know something cool I figured out? I know how Po is the Dragon Warrior despite never training, why Oogway picked him over all the other Masters. It has to do with a real-life version of Kung Fu, the Animal Styles. The Furious Five represent the actual animals of most of the Animal Styles of Kung Fu: Tiger, Crane, Snake, Monkey, and Praying Mantis. Those are specific styles that take a specific type of individual to master or even perform to any significant degree. But there is another style...Dragon Style. It's the only style that uses a mash up of the other fighting styles and techniques. Which makes sense since Po would be great for learning that he's been a Kung Fu fan forever studying the fighting styles and practicing them. In fact Po's instinct to use what he calls "Crazy Feet" is likely meant to be based on "the Dragon Step". The Dragon Step is a defining piece of this Martial Art it moves in an unconventional zig zag way sort of like a dance.
Great comment thanks
@@AwesomeUSMovies You're welcome, man! It's great to get a reply from the reactor. It's usually other people that see it and reply, so thank YOU!
I find this movie a deep one it's relatable...
Love this series, very heartfelt material. Note, there is a new tv series on Netflix this past year. You might want to check that out on your personal time. Some stuff you should keep for yourself.
Since you love kung fu panda, you should DEFINITELY react to Kung Fu Hustle
added thanks
Great suggestion. He’ll love it.
Your reactions are so awesome!
Thanks
awww i love your reaction :') it's wholesome
So glad
This was fun. Kung Fu Panda was a really nice surprise after about a decade of meh films from DreamWorks Animation
I liked it
So good is this movie😂😂gets me everytime
Yeah, it was fun
COCO is an animated film we think you would like.
Thanks, I'll take a look
wondering if you’d add another dreamsworks film to your list? Or unsure if you’ve already watched it. But definitely recommend Watching Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. a lot of heart, amazing songs (not a musical), and best storyline
Some more to add to your list if you have not yet is some Jackie Chan movies. His martial arts is amazing. he is the one who invented the drunken fist! For sure watch the 3 different Rush Hour movies with him and Chris Tucker you will be amazing by the fighting and the comedy is top tier.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Hi, I am a first timer on your channel, but I have watched reactions for 2 years already. I just wanted to point out that if you would not rush through the Patreon list it would give it much more wait. Usually it is a perk of the tier to be mentioned but I feel that so many just rush to have it done. Would be great to see someone do it differently
Usually it's not rushed. It's usually a bit slow. I think it was just this edit.
Best Jack Black Movie (my opinion):
Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny.
Your dude 'Meatloaf' is in it. 😀
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
I would like to recommend other animation studios to watch:
Cartoon Saloon makes beautiful 2D films.
Laika makes creepy stopmotion films.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
I know I'm a few days late, but I would like to suggest something.
If you really enjoyed Kung Fu Panda, I believe there are some Anime series you might like. The first being Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. The great thing about this series is that the English version is just as good as the original, so you really don't miss out on much.
Just a thought if you wanted something that you could go through more consistently, like once or twice a week and at the same time open up a new avenue for reactions.
Cheers and have fun with whatever content you decide to put out.
Actually one of my friend-reactors does Anime series. I'd suggest going and looking at his channel.

You need to see the other 2 or you won't get the whole story. BTW, I can't believe you don't know Angelina Jolie and all the movie she's done plus how often she's been in the news with Brad Pitt and their 7 children. Loved your reaction.
Wait what???? I thought he was married to the friends girl?
@@AwesomeUSMovies Haha, they started their relationship while filming their movie Mr. & Mrs. Smith. He later divorce Jennifer Aniston and got on with Angela, and later on married her after they had a few adopted and biological kids. They are now divorced. Please watch Kung Fu Panda 2 & 3 and you will get the whole story. Tip: Master Oogway went on to the Spirit world which you will see in the 3rd one.
I really liked this! Very funny! 🐼 ✌🏻☀️
Glad you liked it!!
Hey! If you love tenacious d, you really need to see "the pick of destiny".. Great movie!

Wreck-It Ralph
Zootopia
Another Great animated DreamWorks film that gets overlooked frequently, SPIRIT, STALLION OF THE CIMMARON.
got it
Great reaction 😊
Thanks
Everybody was Kung fu fighting..

YAY you took my advice, and I'm so glad you liked it!
Can you please check out JoJo Rabbit for us???
added
Love the Channel
Crazy how he doesn’t know these world known actors lol
Lots to learn
Master Shifu🙏
Can you please react to old Clint Eastwood movies like hang em high, the good bad and the ugly, grand Torino. All have great morals and are really entertaining
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
I find animated movies better than most live action movies. If you stick with the series you will find out what happens when you execute the Wuxi finger hold in Kung Fu Panda III.
Cool thanks
I hope u react to the 2nd and 3rd one too:))
Maybe
You should watch Jack Black in Enemy of the State and Day of the Jackal :)
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
I think you should check out the other Dreamworks movies!
Your reaction was awesome! I want you to watch "How To Train Your Dragon" trilogy, it is my favorite movie and you will totally like it)
I'll check it out!
In my opinion anything with Jack Black is going to be laughs you should definitely look into some of his other movies like The tenacious D movie.
I have to go with School of Rock.
@@EricAKATheBelgianGuy yeah that's another great one!!!!
Pick of Destiny is such an underrated movie. 😀
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
I can't not watch a Jack Black movie. My favorite from him is Shallow Hal.
Great reaction, but you don’t know who SETH ROGEN is !?!?!? Lol
I don't know who the majority of actors are actually. Check out some of my other content. You'll be amazed... everyone else seems to be. I've got lots to learn.
@@AwesomeUSMovies yeah, i realized after I watched the video that you were catching up on 40 years of movies ! I’m
Excited to watch more reactions.
I’d love to see a Coraline reaction
added
awesome us movies is awesome
Another animated movie you are bound to like if you haven't seen it is "Shrek."
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
How to train your dragon!!!! Try it.
added
You should watch the green mile its an amazing movie that I think you would love
Added thanks
Please please please react to Kill Bill vol.1 and 2! You will love it (and I'm sure will get lots of views)
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
🐼
Hi Michael say I love you at a friend and God bless you and I like your video have a good day or have a good night 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💜💜💜🧡🤩🥰💝💘😇😇🤩🥰💕👄
Thanks
James watch kung fu panda 2 please
Will do thanks
Have you watched Tenacious D And The Pick Of Destiney?! I hope not. 🤞🤞🤞
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
You have 3 parts.
cool thanks
I hear the two sequels to this are great, too, though this is the only one I've seen. I'll suggest "The Incredibles" and its sequel, as well as the "Despicable Me" series of films and its prequel, "Minions."
yeah I've seen those
"Angelina Jolie doesn't sound right" lol you have no idea how spot on you were there. She was married to Billy Bob Thorton(another actor) and they had a vile of each other's blood on a necklace they each wore. Just 1 of her "quirky" things.
funny
cartoon and animation is exactly same thing...
That's what I thought but others say different
Please add “We Are Marshall” and “Glory Road” and “He Got Game” to the List.
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
The sequel is best is my opinion.
I'm sure I'll watch the 2nd one
A good animation would be Zootopia
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
Great pick
Hey, if you like good animated movies, "Encanto" is a awesome movie!!
added
@@AwesomeUSMovies awesome. Its a good movie about family. Thats why it hits everyone because it is so relatable. Looking forward to see you watching it. Have a nice day and greetings from Switzerland. :)
Encanto is amazing!
the two other kung fu Panda are better. You should watch them
Cool
